I didn't know Todepond worked on tldraw. That's cool. > really novel UI for LLMs Are you referring to Tldraw Computer or something else? Don't get me wrong, it looks really nice but not that different from other graph representations of LLM workflows, including live updates in the nodes themselves.

hello it's me Todepond

Do you somewhere have slides/recordings from the awesome AI tinkerers talk you did? Because that's what I had in mind when I made this comment and will be way easier than me trying to describe it

Hey, Steve here from tldraw. We had a bunch of fun putting this together so I'm really happy to see folks enjoying it. I'm not sure where the project is going but I've been waking up for weeks with a fresh "oh christ, we could do ___", so that's exciting. Ask me anything!

Hi Steve! Super cool implementation. Any chance you’ll make the source available? There are about 50 extensions I’d make to it if I could! (And I’m sure I’m not alone.)

Not immediately! This might turn out to be just a great demo, might be something worth continuing with, really depends on how the next few weeks go. Either way there might be something we can do with the developer community around data endpoints in the short term.

Steve,

I'd like to know if I can use the SDK to build workflow/process diagrams that specify inputs, outputs, and side effects (ie, this process creates a pile of logs or documentation) and then export a process specification for use in another application.

My specific use case is process mapping and quality systems implementation in a hardware engineering setting.

believe it or not I picked the tldraw name because I already owned the domain (I'd bought it for a different project called telestrator) and it was only weeks later when Francois Laberge complimented the clever name that I noticed the portmanteau

I'd appreciate if you didn't consider Firefox Relay emails as disposable email. The Firefox folks specifically have tried to make Relay anti-abuse.

Oh sorry, that's a toggle in Clerk (our auth provider), it doesn't provide granularity around which are disposable and which aren't. I'll take a look and see whether there's anything I can do short of turning off that feature.

I ended up at Tldraw's London office a few weeks ago for a thing, and I remember afterwards being like 'ahh, now I understand how they end up just casually doing random cool shit and attracting the kind of talent they do'. They should be extremely proud of the culture they've managed to foster and I genuinely hope to see them succeed as a business.

Very much this! I was also at a thing at their office a few weeks ago (some thing? "Local Thirst"), and Steve gave a demo of this. It is incredible. I've joked before that the last generation of human machine interfaces ware invented at Xerox park, and the next generation is being invented at TLDraw of Finsbury Park. But it's not really a joke, I genuinely believe it.

Ha yeah, that was the same thing! The night it rained sideways.

So this is the demo people were talking about at the end of the night! I was quite annoyed I missed it, makes sense now. I think I was nerding out over current-gen HIDs while eyeing up their very tastefully equipped coffee station (ozone roasters ftw)

That sounds really useful. There's no export yet here apart from images and it isn't something I've thought about much so far. Are there standard formats for these types of workflows?

This can be a good tool to teach kids programming/generative-ai

Actually in its present form. It would need to be supervised to help teach kids programming.

I just spent the last few hours typing in the specification of a Freshman programming project that I use to teach, Rock, Paper, Scissors.

Specifying the programming assignment using either Python, C or C++, using their parameterization feature. Parameterization is very cool by the way!

It would routinely miss putting any headers in for the C or C++ examples. Once in awhile it would generate actual working code in C and C++. But it was all unindented. The same for Python also. The Python code had no indenting everytime causing indentation errors for the Python environment. I tried many different ways of specifying indentation for the text output; it didn't work. Possibly b/c of the HTML output being generated. It's 90% there, but the user would actually have to have some knowledge of the programming language to make sense of the errors.

I am sorry but I am confused. To whom exactly are you talking to?

To Steve, who has answered.
